The final match of Gameweek 15 sees Liverpool welcome West Ham United to Anfield in the 4.30pm kick-off.

Both Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino are highly fancied against a Hammers defence that shipped five at home to Arsenal last weekend.

Mane has served up points in five of his six home outings, whilst Firmino will be looking to banish a three-match barren run and return to the form that has already seen him register 15 points in front of his own supporters on two occasions.

Divock Origi looks to score for the fourth successive match in all competitions to strengthen his claim as a mid-price festive frontman.

West Ham, meanwhile, have home encounters with Burnley and Hull followed by a trip to Swansea in the upcoming three Gameweeks.

We’ll be looking for signs of form from Dimitri Payet and the fit-again Michail Antonio, then, while big Andy Carroll is named amongst the subs against his former club, having emerged from the bench to net the Hammers’ consolation against Arsenal last time out.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    1 -4 Firmino + Austin > Mane + Llorente (exact cash for tonite)
    2 Origi
    3 Nacho

    1. Evans

        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        yep thinking 1. is the hit warrated?

  3. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Guys, what changes to do with 1 FT & 0.3m itb?

    Grant
    Walker / Cedric / Mcauley / Amat
    Sanchez / Firmino / Hazard / Siggy
    Kane / Costa
    (Pickford / Fletcher / Holebas / Austin)

    A) Austin -> Llorente
    B) Austin & Holebas/Cedric -> Anichebe & Alonso (-4)
    C) Austin & Fletcher -> Anichebe & Zaha (-4)
    D) any other suggestion

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Just A

      1. Who Ate All Depays?
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        but doubt whether he's a sure starter?

  4. Zlatans little helper
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Any news on Can? Plummeting, so just get rid?

    1. Geoff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I don't think he was ever a good option. I'd consider moving him on

  5. CloudSky
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Williams, Can and Nacho in my team, but Im thinking of actually saving. Possible transfers include:
    A: Williams -> Gibson/Jones/Barragan/Ake
    C: Nacho -> Origi

    Would you do anything of the above?

  6. Sliver
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Surely everyone considering united defence with those upcoming fixtures? Who's nailed on?

    1. gaurava1216
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      jones

      1. Sliver
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Very tempting that

    2. TooDifficuIt
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Bailly is the nailed on, you have to wait to see whos the other one but i think jones

    3. phace
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I'm not at all, United are utter garbage.

  7. Crystal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Is Kane essential for GW16? It will take me a couple of hits to get or I can do Firminho to Erikson for free

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I would do Eriksen

  8. gaurava1216
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Which is better?

    A) Fer to Payet and Capoue to DeRoon
    B) Fer to Antonio and Anichebe to Rondon

    My front 8:

    A) Sanchez Payet Firminio Hazard
    Kane Costa Anichebe

    B) Sanchez Antonio Firminio Hazard
    Kane Costa Rondon

  9. camarozz
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Great Llorente rising tonight.
    Another rushed transfer.

    1. gaurava1216
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      away at wba... not for me

    2. Evans
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      It's a conspiracy I tell you

  10. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Can't decide whether to keep Nacho or get Origi in. Seems unlikely Nacho will start after being hauled off at 55 minutes

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      If no other issues I would pull the trigger

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Firmino the only other I want rid of

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          Who are you planning to get for Firmino?

          1. Bubz
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 9 days ago

            Eriksen or Payet

    2. Evans
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Why not ? It's not as if nacho is tired

      Think you need to give him a chance

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        I dont think Pep likes him. Can see a false 9 approach with nolito or KDB

        1. Evans
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          Nolito did do well hmm

          For me I have more pressing concerns

    3. CloudSky
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Same. Will probably save but I really want to switch.

  11. tricpic
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Selling Austin. Taking form and fixtures into account:
    A) Defoe
    B) benteke
    C) someone else - and if so who ?

    1. Coaly
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Probably B although I went A

      Benteke has tough fixtures

  12. Over Midwicket
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Why are people not getting in Zaha? CPL can score against anyone. They have attacking form which crushes fixtures and are desperate to stay up so will score goals.

  13. Moves like Dejagah
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Is 47 points after a 4 point hit any good this week? Unfortunately I brought in Nacho for Diomande and the inevitable happened.

  14. lordkippe
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    feels like a little crisis wit this team. I have 2.4 ITB and can do 2 transfers. what would you guys do ?

    Heaton/Jaku

    Alonso - Cedric - Lovren - Pieters - Amat

    Hazard - Firmino - Siggy - Wally - De roon

    Costa - Kane - El nacho

  15. WUSS
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Got in Mane instead of Payet, am i going to regret this move?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      If I say yes, will you get Payet for -4?

      1. WUSS
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Oh boy. imma cry now.

  16. Cojiro
    • 11 Years

    Is Jonty's Goals imminent table up to date with the stats from this week?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years

        Thanks

  17. KISSES
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Phil Jones worth bringing in?

    1. Evans
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Good question ....

      1. Evans
        • 13 Years

        Ta

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      B

    2. Toure The Route
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Robson will piss you off
      Not even worth it

      1. Toure The Route
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        *Rondon

    3. La vida FPL

  21. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Cedric, I missed him today
    Any info?

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I can't find anything about an injury . It was probably rotation .

    2. Toure The Route
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Def a rest for the upcoming games
      Martina had one solid game though so worrying
      Wouldn't buy for now but I am holding

    3. Geoff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Just a rest

  22. Rains of Castamere
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Okaka at 5.3 anyone? Good fixtures after City away.

    1. Kip
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I would if i couldnt afford origi

      1. Rains of Castamere
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Looked good on MOTD didn't he.

        1. Kip
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          He was very good in the box at anderlecht. Real powerhouse and good vista

    2. Pub Crawl to the Townsend
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Bit soon

    3. Toure The Route
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Worth a punt if he has fixtures
      Watford are trying to score every game nowadays

    4. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      City's defence is awful so he could still score against them.

  23. Pub Crawl to the Townsend
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Am i right to save and reasses after midweek?

    Foster Jaku
    Alonso Lovren A.Smith Mee Amat
    Sanchez Hazard Siggy Snoddy Capoue
    Kane Costa Benteke

    Cant see any urgent matters yet

  24. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Lovren to
    A Vertonghen
    B Rose

    1. Pub Crawl to the Townsend
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Maybe A as Rose racks up YC's

    2. Az
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Rose as. 100x the attacking threat

    3. Toure The Route
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Rose attacking threat > Yellows
      Verto doesn't get bonus either

  25. James101
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Squad:

    Grant. Pickford.

    Alonso. Cedric. Francis. McAuley. Kingsley.

    Firmino. Hazard. Siggy. Sanchez. Phillips.

    Costa. Kane. Nacho.

    So I’m considering :

    Firminho and Cedric
    to
    Mane and defender to £4.6m.

    Which sounds better?

    A. Amat
    B. Ake
    C. Evans or Nyom
    D. Prodl
    E. Dawson
    F. Somebody else (who?)

    That'd be for a hit though.

    Would a simple swap of firmy to one of these be better?

    G. Eriksen
    H. Walcott

    THANKS!!

    1. Geoff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I wouldn't take a hit. Cedric doesn't need to go. I'd do G of those

      1. James101
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Thanks mate.

        Anything better than g?!

        1. Geoff
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          I'm holding Firmino for one more game.

          Personally I'd move Ihea out but I'm really not sure if that's the right move or not

    2. Pele Pels
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      H Walcott will be back to his best with Bellerin on the pitch

  26. A.T
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Any reason not to get Origi at all?

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      It might damage your prospects in deadline bingo

      1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Any actual reasons no.

      2. A.T
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        I knew it was too good to be true 🙁

        1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          You are smart enough not to listen to me 🙂

    2. Bored Bear
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      532, fixtures?

  27. F4L
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Aguero about to drop to 12.8, could be 12.6 by the time his suspension is over

    1. Captain Vantastic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      Not sure about that

  28. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    a) Walcott to Eriksen
    b) Holebas to Jones
    c) Save

    1. Pub Crawl to the Townsend
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      C by far

      1. Coaly
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        I have a suspicion Walcott will be benched for one of the next two games

        1. Pub Crawl to the Townsend
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 9 days ago

          Could happen to most players over the next few weeks though. Walcott doesnt look as at risk as ox. He might be safe

    2. Toure The Route
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      C

  29. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 days ago

    Firmino -> Antonio
    Pieters -> Alonso

    for -4 hit?

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 days ago

      I could Siggy instead of Antonio but than would mean Cahill instead of Alonso

      1. Hakchak
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Yes that would be the best, siggy + chelsea defence is no brainer

      2. WUSS
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Do this

  30. Leaf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Firmino to Payet done

    Love my team for this week...need it after a massive red arrow this week,

      Foster

      Cedric , Alonso , Mcauley

      1. Hakchak
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 days ago

        Looks great, though double WB defense always tough
